I want to make her stop (though having taken clomid, which is horrible, it's kind of hilarious that she's going through it for nothing) but what I really want to do is find the doc who prescribed it for her and at minimum mock them mercilessly

Mrs.Rock, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Mrs. Rock as in John Rock, one of the inventors of "the Pill"?Clomid is nasty stuff - chronic PMS and THEN you get your period - and in her case it may really have damaged her brain permanently!darwinism in action, i guess.

That is some powerful drug. She'd better be careful not to take it after she gets pregnant. Then her fetus may get pregnant as well. Scheiße this could become an infinite loop of pregnancies inside one uterus.

OMFG...I'm not much of an environmenalist, but c'mon...there's gotta be some kind of contamination out there producing these mutations. I am convinced we could not have survived through the centuries with this level of ignorance and stupidity that exists today. I'm not sure some of these people wouldn't become confused and run toward, not away from a rabid animal.

I had a patient the other day come in complaining that her medication tasted disgusting and made her mouth feel "all greasy". It was a suppository.

Welcome to my whining!
